Friday 12th November 2021 I went to the Beano Exhibition at Somerset House with My Auntie Denise. We went straight there on the District Line from Upney to Temple. Then we stepped into the pages of the comic and took a trip into Beanotown to explore how this beloved icon of British comics has fired up successive generations to break the rules, while discovering artists who push boundaries in their own original and wonderful ways. We came face-to-face with the Beano gang – including Dennis and Gnasher, Minnie the Minx, Bananaman and the Bash Street Kids – through original comic artwork and amazing artefacts, plundered from the Beano’s archive. Afterwards we went to Bella Italia restaurant in Covent Garden where I had pizza and chips and I had a chocolate chip cookie dough for dessert. Below are some pictures from my day and also if you like reading my blog please comment.
